Russian Engineers Laugh at US Bradley IFVs

Russian engineers who studied captured US-made Bradleys found them to be significantly inferior to Russian IFVs in terms of firepower, mobility, maintenance, and ease of use.

The Russian engineers pointed out that the BMP-3 can overcome water obstacles while moving, while the Bradleys cannot do so without prior preparation. They also noted that the electronic components of the American IFVs are a weak point, and a failure can cause the armored vehicles to completely lose their ability to fire.

One Russian engineer went so far as to say that the Bradleys are "a joke" and that Ukraine is a "graveyard" for the American fighting vehicles.

I'd think Russian engineers have more things to worry about

What an honest and unbiased source those Russian engineers must be

(In Russian accent) Russian engineer: “You see, BMP is better because when it gets hit, it opens a giant escape hatch in its roof! Along with this, it also ejects its crew! Like fighter jet!”

When your troops would rather sit on top of the armored carrier instead of inside. You don't get to talk.

[NoName-gwmn]

Aren’t these the same people who couldn’t shoot down a British plane because the missiles missed… twice & malfunctioned

At least our flagship wasn't sunk by two ancient antiship missiles from a country that doesn't have a navy.

Meanwhile Russian engineers are also confused why the turret is still on the bradley and there isn't a bunch a dead inside.

"American electronics are such a weakpoint!" *The russian shouts through his 1950's phone looking radio, equipped with the best russian carboard armor*

[Gilberto]

Russian engineers: Bradley is inferior because it doesn't have an automatic cremator.

[neveroul]

This video and this comment section is just an absence of critical thinking

[johnsoulou]

To be fair, Russian engineers are pretty well educated. It takes a degree on rocket science to calculate the orbit of an tank turret

[eccentricsmithy]

American engineers are laughing because russian tank turrets spend more time in the air than their airforce planes.

[jamessolberg]

Russian tank crews get more flight hours than average Russian pilots.

[tommclauglin]

Russian engineers also pointed to the Bradley's inability to throw its turret even just 3 feet into the air when the ammo pack detonates as evidence of the weakness of American engineering.

[ARenaissanceMedic]

At the end of the day, a Bradley gets blown up and the crew lives to fight another day. A BMP just blows up

[CapitanBluebeard]

Anyone who believes a BMP is a better IFV than a Bradley has lost all of their marbles.

[nachtensturn]

Oh and I guess you're going to blatantly disregard the fact that a Bradley disabled a t90 tank lmao

[squiggles]

the fact they needed to study a captured bradley to figure out that they're not built to be amphibious and only have a 25mm autocannon says a lot about the brains of these engineers

[bovke]

Russian engineers should engineer something they can use from this century. Instead of engineering the 70 year old wwii vets out of storage
